The Sheppey Light Railway
This book is a thoroughly absorbing account of perhaps Colonel Stephens' most successful light railway, the Sheppey Light Railway, opened in August 1901.Although absorbed into the SE&CR, improvements never managed to erase the H P Stephens pedigree, which was apparent to the end. While the promoters' high hopes of transforming this Kentish island into a paradise for holidaymakers and residents failed to materialise, the light railway retained its usefullness for 50 years up to closure 0n 4 Decenber 1950.
Softcover, 104 pages, 122 b/w illustrations, 14 maps and track plans.
